Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 34

Leah was shocked and quickly looked away. However, it was too late. Han seemed to have recognized her. His heart skipped a beat.

Her eyes… Han could not help but gasp.

“Mrs. White…” All of a sudden, Han walked up to Jane. “Who is this lady? Why haven’t I seen her before?”

Hearing that, Jane’s expression darkened. “She is Sarah, our daughter. We found her five months ago.”

“Sarah?” Han could not help murmuring her name. It was such an ordinary name, but somehow he felt strange mentioning it.

He walked up to Sarah and said, “Ms. White, you look like an old friend of mine.”

Taking two steps back, Sarah braced herself to raise her head. She quickly gave Han a smile. “Really? You sound like you care about her very much.”

“No.” Han denied, “I don’t care about her. On the contrary, I hate her very much. Especially her eyes. I hate them the most.”

In the past, Han was hesitant whenever he looked into Leah’s eyes. At times, he even wondered why such a cruel woman would have such innocent eyes.

Hearing that, Sarah’s heart sank. She could not help clenching her fists behind her back, trying to resist the desire to run away.

“Really?” Sarah forced a smile again. “So, which part of me looks like her the most?”

Hearing that, Han blinked and answered without hesitation, “Your eyes.”

“Mr. Howard, are you making fun of me? Or do you hate my eyes too?”

“You think too much.” Han looked away. Although he was taken aback, he was sure that the girl in front of him was not Leah.

“Ms. White has very beautiful eyes. Not like her,” Han replied.

Sarah had never thought Han would say that. She kept herself calm and replied, “Thank you for your compliment.”

However, Han lost interest in the topic. He nodded at Jane again and returned to his car.

After Han’s car disappeared from their sight, Sarah could not stand it anymore. She quivered slightly and slowly bent over. Even though five months had passed, she still felt scared when she saw Han.

“Sarah, are you okay?” Jane came over and held her up.

Sarah bit her lips and tried to calm herself. She shook her head and replied, “Yeah, I’m fine.”

Seeing that, Jane was worried. “You’d better keep a distance from him in the future. I can see that he looks at you as if he knows you.”

Jane paused and sighed. “He used to be a nice boy when he was a child. How could he become so cold and utterly unpredictable when he grew up? It must be that woman’s fault.”

Sarah was in a daze and did not pay attention to what Jane said. She could not even think clearly.

In the evening, Jane and Sarah returned to the White residence.

As soon as they entered the house, Sasha came up to them happily. “Mom, Sarah, I have good news for you.”

The three of them walked to the living room and saw Gordon reading documents on the couch. There was joy in his tired eyes.

“What’s the good news?” Jane smiled.

Hearing that, Sasha quickly took out something from her back mysteriously. “This! I won second place in the International Piano Competition!”

Jane took the certificate to take a look. Sarah also leaned over curiously.

On the certificate with a golden frame, Sasha’s name was printed on it.

“Sasha is indeed talented in music.” Gordon put away the documents in his hand and said, “I’m proud of you, Sasha.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

However, Jane refuted, “Well, I’m the one who always encourages her!.”

“Haha, you’re right. You play an important role in turning Sasha into an outstanding young girl!”

“Oh, come on. Dad, mom, you two are my role models, okay?”

Hearing the happy conversation of the three, Sarah was rendered speechless for a moment.

Although Sarah was happy for Sasha, she felt that she was a stranger. She always felt Gordon, Jane and Sasha were a family, and she was only an outsider.

Sarah remained silent, and Sasha seemed to notice that.

“Dad, I’m going to play you a song at the party. What do you think?” Sasha suggested.

“Sure! That’s a great idea. I will get the best piano for you that night,” Gordon answered with a smile.

Sasha then walked over and held Sarah’s arm. ”Sarah, so what do you prepare for Dad for the party?”

Hearing that, Sarah was a little embarrassed.

Gordon did not lack money. Expensive gifts meant nothing to him. However, Sarah had no other talent.

“Sasha, Sarah just came back. Let her have a rest first.” Jane interrupted.

Hearing that, Sarah looked at Jane gratefully and ran back to her room.

“Is Sarah not feeling well? What happened just now?” Gordon asked.

Jane gave Gordon a reproachful look. “Why didn’t you ask her just now if you’re so concerned about her?”

Gordon wanted to explain. However, he stopped on second thought. He cleared his throat and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Jane sat on the couch and told him what happened just now.

Gordon frowned. “If Sarah is afraid of Han, we might as well not invite him to the party.”

“But I’ve invited him on your behalf when we met him just now. Besides, Han is quite cynical. If you don’t invite him, he will become suspicious.”

“Then what do you think we should do?”

“Just let Sarah stay away from him at the party. We can’t hide her forever. By the way, did you go to investigate Sarah’s past? What have you found out?”

“What have you found out about Sarah White?” In the CEO office, Han looked at Ben expressionlessly with one hand supporting his chin.

Ben spread out a document in front of Han and said, “Mr. White found Ms. White five months ago. She has been staying with them since then. During this period, Mrs. White took her to Yoroland, and she did not come back until recently.”

“What’s the relationship between Sarah and Sasha White?” Han asked again.

“Ten years ago, Mr. and Mrs. White’s daughter went missing after she fell into the river by accident. The White family found Sasha. But five months ago, they found Sarah White who also has a birthmark similar to Sasha. Not only that, Sarah is related to Gordon by blood after taking the paternity test..”
